*Documents needed for this lesson:

Interview Slides (needed prior to this lesson) Partner Preparation Sheet (used prior to class to prepare for the interview) Peer Review Sheet

Teacher Rubric Example 1 Teacher Rubric Example 2 Personal Reflection Sheet (completed after the lesson)

Online modifications :

Version 1.

Students can make a video of their interview with a relative or a peer using WeVideo or any other platform that is uploadable. The student is still responsible for not only playing the role of the interviewee, but also the interviewer. All of the requirements on the rubric hold true for the online interview. The video is then posted on Google Classroom and the other classmates must watch the video and use the peer review sheet to assess the performance. The video watching can be done live during a class Zoom session or on the students’ own time, given as an additional assignment. Discussion about the interviews can be held after the interview videos are watched by all students.

Version 2.

Students may conduct the interview live on Zoom with their partner (each from their own home). All other students must mute their microphones. Students need to be held accountable for their performance as an audience member. The rubric may be modified to include audience participation points as well as other changes that are deemed important for online interviews (ex: non-verbal communication). All other assessment tools should hold consistent with the original rubric. Additional time can be given to students to work with their partner via email, Google Docs, or Zoom. The groups can complete the partner participation sheet together prior to the interview. Peer review sheets are completed by all students as they watch the live interviews take place.
